If you like this song, there's lots more like it on Twila's 'Cry for the Desert' alblum, which you should be able to find in your average CD store.
He was an independant son always on the run
No time to listen to the Father
He stood alone to face the gale, so afraid to fail
Afraid to listen to a brother
Then suddenly, like a memory
The candle in his heart burst into flame
And patiently, oh so patiently, the voice of mercy
Truth and light spoke once again into the night
How can this be? What do we see?
Nothing but love in its purest form
Nothing but love would go into the storm
Challenge the pride clouding his eyes
Nothing but love could lead him in
Nothing but love would do it again.
Is there an independant child with a heart gone wild
Be still and listen to the Father
So underneath the weight you bear, so afraid to share
Open the curtain to a brother
And suddenly more than memory
The candle in your heart can be a flame
And patiently, oh so patiently the voice of mercy
Truth and light will speak again into the night
How can this be? Oh do you see?
Nothing but love in its purest form
Nothing but love would go into the storm
Challenge the pride clouding your eyes
Nothing but love could lead you in
Nothing but love will do it again
When you fall at His feet and your heart has been humbled and broken
Then the God of compassion will reach down his hand
And He will lift you up, He will lift you up
Nothing but love in its purest form
Nothing but love would go into the storm
Challenge the pride clouding our eyes
Nothing but love could lead us in
Nothing but love will do it again
